Abstract
As next generation of internet development, Metaverse has generated significant interests mainly from entertainment and virtual communication as well as xR/AR/VR/MR industries. In comparison, little interests have been shown from academic and scholarly communities. As the investments in Metaverse development increase, it is expected that the Industrial Metaverse will be emerged, which can be utilized for advanced design and intelligent manufacturing. This seminar will be focused on Adaptable Design (AD）methods, tools and applications. The possible benefits of AD for long-term major engineering systems in an Industrial Metaverse environment will be discussed along with Digital Twins, Industrial Internet of Things and other advanced technologies.
